[SBE] Pay scale

[Jeremy Morris]

Depends on region. I make far more here in the DC area than I did in the midwest, but cost of living is ridiculously high here.  Keep that in mind when looking for jobs.  Everything may look great on paper, but do some research on the area.  Also compare benefit pkgs (although with the new bill, everyone will get stuck with crap).  Check websites on median income levels in comparison to what the job is gonna pay. That will help to clue you in on what you're actual pay will be.

Subject: [SBE] Pay scale

Hi All,

Refering to the story I read and mentioned on CNN and the homeless person who got into 
television with no training and questionable character because he has been in prison and 
homeless (even though we don't know his exact circumstances)...leads me to a question 
(and I am not asking for specific information from anyone as that is of course of a personal 
nature)...but typically, what kind of pay scale can a broadcast engineer expect to make. I 
understand this is going to vary with contract work, years of experience, type of work you 
specifically do, etc...but typically I am curious as to what the average broadcast technician 
takes home weekly/yearly, etc. 

Thanks,

Russ
